Love and longing are two sides of the same coin. Longing enlivens love and love sharpens longing. But love and longing are also contrasting energies: Love is directed towards the other, whereas longing demands a response from the other. If you ‘fall in love’ and find that it cannot or will not be reciprocated, it does not mean that your love is not real or valuable. It simply means that your love is not being met in the way you hope and wish, in the way your expectations are conditioned. Such a situation is often a Call, to completely immerse yourself in the emotional depths of both love and longing so that a new you can emerge, infused with a very different order of love, for the Beloved within. When The Beloved Calls speaks to this through poetry and art meant to take you on a journey into this deeper experience of Love.
